I haven't read the list thoroughly during the latest months but I think this happened to me (sorry if it is not related to the topic). Suddenly my 770 wouldn't charge battery. I had some residual battery charge left so I made backup, took out the memory card and took the thing to technical services. After some inconveniences finally I found out that the battery of my 770 was Ok, but the charger had died. Bought another one for around 12 € and fixed!
